One moment changes the course of her entire life. Meeting her changes his.
Rebecca The moment my classmate turned his gun on me everything changed. I’m left with the scars of that day, both inside and out. The worst part is the only place I feel safe is behind the walls I’ve built. I want to let Spencer in, but I’m terrified once I do, he’ll run.
Spencer I may be on the basketball team, but I’m a nerd at heart. Building robots in my garage interests me far more than girls…until now. Too bad Rebecca has relegated me to the friend zone. One thing is certain. I’m not giving up without a fight.
Start reading now and find out if Spencer can convince Rebecca to give their love a chance.
This is a full-length friends to lovers romance. You can read it as a standalone or as part of the I’m Yours series.
Mica Rae is a contemporary romance author. She lives in Oregon with her Havanese and two Doodles. In the fall you can find her screaming at the TV while cheering for her Oklahoma State Cowboys. The rest of the year when she’s not writing or reading, her wanderlust has her traveling the globe. Her love of history currently has her on a mission to visit all thirteen presidential libraries and museums.
I tried another book from this author thinking the last one I read of hers was a one-off…but nope.
This author definitely isn’t for me. Because of course he moved on with someone else because even though he says he loves her, he wasn’t going to wait around. But we all know had the situation been the other way around, she would have waited forever for him.
And of course she’s a virgin for him while he had a serious girlfriend 🙄
Wow this book was just as good as, Hush, I'm Yours Book One. I love that Mica Rae writes about topics that are real and hard to read. This book talked about the after affects on an individual after facing a school shooting. The emotions and fears of Rebecca after her ordeal takes the reader to an emotional level that is deep. I felt as if I were there experiencing it with her. Spencer is such a terrific guy for loving Rebecca even when she has a hard time loving herself. He too over came some struggles with Rebecca's help. So glad I got to read both books. Bravo, Mica!
Mica Rae has done it again! She makes you fall in love with her characters with each book. Rebecca and Spencer are two characters with a lot of heart which made her very difficult background much easier to read. Their heart and sensitivity made me fall in love with them that much more! I can’t wait until book 3 comes out!
Mica Rae is really coming into her own as an author. Rebecca and Spencer are my favorite characters so far! I love that there is always an element of true-life mixed in with the steamy romantic stuff we all want and crave. Rebecca had some serious stuff to get through in order to love herself, and Spencer was her biggest supporter. I know that her story, albeit fiction, can bring hope to those out there that don’t think they are worthy of love. Another hit, Mica Rae! I CANNOT WAIT for Protect to come out!
Another one in the books 📖 no pun intended. I cherished (again no pun lol ) this book so much! What a roller coaster with Spencer a shy sexy jock who loves robots and Rebecca a victim from a school shooting. They each have to find love in themselves in order to be happy together.
I loved this story, and I love how accident prone she is, its hilarious. I really felt for this couple with their own set of insecurities just wanting to be loved.
After a devastating past, she became a recluse . He is lost to who he really is. When they meet, he tries everything to get her to date him. She is so traumatized by her past that she won't allow herself to live.
Rebecca and Spencer's story is available for now! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08G1W92L3 Here's a Sneak Peek... “Are you sure you’re okay with this?” Edie asks over her shoulder as she looks for something to wear. I wave a hand at her. “It’s fine. I want him to be happy.” I hope my face doesn’t betray the fact that I’m lying through my teeth. Not about wanting him happy, that part is true. I’m far from fine about this double date, though. I don’t want him to like another girl. “What if you told him? Give him the chance to decide if he’s okay with everything? I know you feel like he’ll be put off by…” “Edie,” I interrupt not even wanting her to say it, “I love hanging out with him. I don’t want things to get weird. If he ever stops looking at me the way he does, it will wreck me. He is the first guy who looks at me like I matter like I’m special.” “That’s because he’s one of the smartest people on the planet. He knows a good thing when he sees it.” I’m seated on Edie’s bed watching her get ready for a double date with Spencer and some sorority girl who’s been chasing after him since orientation. After his drunken profession of love last weekend, he decided to stop chasing after me, and let her catch him. The next day when we all got together, he told me he would respect my wishes and not ask me out again. I know it’s what I said I wanted, but it hurts. Once Edie leaves, I plan on drowning my sorrows in a pint of ice cream and a book. The new Avery Maxwell just loaded on my kindle and I know reading it will make me feel better, even if just for a short time. “You look great,” I tell her. Edie always looks amazing. She’s wearing tight dark jeans and a sparkly tank top I could never pull off with the scars on my collarbone and shoulder. “Where are you going?” “Some house party over on Hester. I’m not sure whose house it is. Why?” she asks, pausing her mascara application to talk. “No reason. I was just curious.” I’m glad they’re going to a party and not somewhere romantic. The thought of him snuggled up to someone else is like a knife to the gut. Though, I guess that still could happen. “You know it doesn’t have to be this way,” she says. “You should be coming with us, not that other girl.” “It does,” I tell her in a voice that leaves no room for discussion. “It’s not fair of me to pursue things with Spencer. Even if I wanted to, I couldn’t go to some crowded party and not have a panic attack. This is for the best.”
Will Rebecca miss out on her chance at true love? We'll have to wait until November 16 to find out.
This book is so well written. I knew after reading Mica’s last book I’d love it and I wasn’t wrong. She has a way of writing a story that draws you right in and keeps you there. And like the first book in this series, she gets right to the heart of the issue and sugarcoats nothing. The issues these two have to deal with are real. They have to fight for everything they want and feel. Work through problems the only ways they know how, while they learn valuable lessons along the way. I think that’s what I liked best about this book. Mica didn’t make this young couple, of only 19, act like they knew how to deal with life and possess all the answers. She allowed them to make mistakes along the way and then have to deal with the consequences that followed.
I highly recommend this book and now am anxiously waiting on the next one.
I started this and read it in one sitting. It’s got all the feels. I wanted to yell at Rebecca many times, but I’m glad she finally came to her senses. Must read.
